Empirical best linear unbiased prediction in cultivar trials using factor-analytic variance-covariance structures

open access: closedTheoretical and Applied Genetics, 1998
Results of multi-environment trials to evaluate new plant cultivars may be displayed in a two-way table of genotypes by environments. Different estimators are available to fill the cells of such tables. It has been shown previously that the predictive accuracy of the simple genotype by environment mean is often lower than that of other estimators, e.g.

An empirical check on best linear unbiased prediction genetic evaluation using pig field recording data

open access: closedCanadian Journal of Animal Science, 1997
The theory and use of best linear unbiased prediction in genetic evaluation are well developed. However, there has been little empirical checking of its efficacy in practice. The objective here was to use a large body of Canadian pig performance records to check on the predicted benefits of BLUP in genetic evaluation.

A pseudo‐empirical best linear unbiased prediction approach to small area estimation using survey weights

open access: closedCanadian Journal of Statistics, 2002
AbstractThe authors develop a small area estimation method using a nested error linear regression model and survey weights. In particular, they propose a pseudo‐empirical best linear unbiased prediction (pseudo‐EBLUP) estimator to estimate small area means.
